Be prepared for an absolute avalanche of bugs and security holes no one alive would've made. I make my living from debugging so I welcome the new job security but it's a massive net negative for society, no question about that.

Next, it tried to use AlpineJS to create tooltips with NextJS which is really not supported and couldn't fix the resulting bugs. For sure, it's better than nothing, but you've got to be at least somewhat competent before you start copy-pasting code from it blindly.
